Not worth it. You have all shown your true faces and they are ugly.


Maybe take a softer approach, kg. Maybe you can find some truth to what they say if you meditate on how you communicate with people on a message board. Try sitting back and observing a little instead of having to have a piece of every topic that comes up. I'm pretty sure no one is trying hurt you because they are mean.

Just some suggestions for you ...

I thought this was a "Covid 19 and those infected" thread?


I can't believe you let KG take you out!

Come on, man!

I didn't come to the thread to see my stuff get fabricated and embellished so that some guy can push his agenda. Not enough hours in the day.


Yet that's exactly what happened.

When Brad said count me in for whatever it takes to bring about positive change (even actions that had zero chance of bringing about positive change) I called him on it. No fabrication or embellishment. I quoted him. I have no agenda.

Ricky I replaced that post with a more detailed post. Take a look. My experience with liberals are if you question their propaganda at all it gets very ugly. I don't get that kind of treatment from conservatives. My experience with conservatives is they are respectful. I still hate both parties, but the supporters of the Democratic party have shown their colors to me. I'm pretty sure they are mean except mean isn't a strong enough word. I would say hateful or spiteful is a better definition.

The exchanges here are starting to make me consider voting for the lesser of two evils.

Because of course, a tragic economy, a horrid response to a global pandemic, record highs with the national debt, total chaos and divide in the streets of the country, 40 million people unemployed and an overt spread of racism in our communities mean absolutely nothing. Some are going to vote based upon how they treated by others in a Talk Vikes thread.

Makes sense to me. [:o] Nothing says grown-up adult quite like that.

I finally found someone less informed and less capable of understanding basic facts than Trump himself. It's our own KG. His mother would be proud.

Nice attack Lynn,
I never attacked you.
I'm going to question every iota of liberal propaganda or conservative propaganda presented to me.
Most political allegations are either false or extremely exaggerated.
For doing so I get attacked.
Your mother would be proud.


Not an attack. Just stating the facts. You actually admitted that you don't read about politics, and your comments showed you don't understand a lot of things either. I was just pointing out your lack of understanding. Just the facts man.

Wow! I want to have a peek at the fantasyland you visit. Watch the crowds at Trump's rallies for the perfect visual of thousands of people who shake their fists at anyone who isn't just like them. And they win the prize for name-calling and vulgarity. If that's being respectful we truly have entered the Twilight Zone.

Put Liberal Protests(Riots) in place of Trump Rallies and you hit the nail right on the head.

Aren't you in Law Enforcement?

I have never experienced a Trump Rally. I have experienced Mark Anderson, Mr. Ed, Unome, and many others on this message board. They are almost always respectful. I have experienced Bill Johanssen, Bohumm, David LeVine, just today this Eagle person. They are extremely disrespectful. Until now you have mostly been respectful, but your comment to me today was anything but respectful and no it wasn't the facts. I'm very capable of understanding. Extremely. I just don't trust almost anything I hear when it comes to politics. So I don't come to the conclusion that Trump is a racist and I also don't come to the conclusion that Biden is a racist despite recent allegations about him being a KKK sympathizer and supporter. Despite his alleged comments about Indians and 7-11. I don't have the context.

BStinger is a liberal who's respectful most of the time. Possibly carrying the respectful torch for every liberal on this message board.

There's an old saying I recommend you reading up on. "You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar."

If you are indeed interested in getting people to listen to your agenda, you may want to take a different approach. Otherwise, you are just burning time away from your life on the Talk Vikes threads.

Call it friendly advice.

Brad since you have been a big part of the debate around here I have temporarily taken you off ignore. You have an extreme talent for twisting things. Tragic economy. The economy was senssational before the COVID hit. Unemployment was sensational before the COVID hit. Chaos and divide in the streets are the liberals. I see no overt spread of racism. I see less racism and experience less racism than ever before. Liberals IMO are the ones spreading divisiveness and hatred. They are quick to attack me if I ever dare question them. You went so far as to give credit to George Floyd rioting for finally getting the idiotic name of the Washington NFL team removed.
If you're going to argue these things do it in good faith and I will keep you off iggy and resume hopefully having meaningful dialog with you.

Our country needs to adopt that slogan. But, Centrist people don't get ratings or rile people up enough.

Yes I could be more "political" about it. However, I decided to call it like it is instead. I have ZERO agenda unless it's getting rid of these two hateful political institutions, but I have no clue about how to accomplish that. I will leave that to others and jump on the bandwagon if anybody ever makes some progress with that.

One thing is for certain, we definitely view the country through a completely different set of lenses. That's okay. It takes all kinds to make the world go around.

How many Trump rallies have you attended to know this is true? I agree with you that Trump is often a rude/vulgar guy. My experiences with conservatives in general is they are anything but. that.

Adults answer the tough questions, not softball rehearsed questions. They don't hide in the basement. Covid is not a good excuse. Plenty of politicians(R & D) out and about and probably have 100X the safeguards that the average American has.

"The exchanges here are starting to make me consider voting for the lesser of two evils." kgdabom

Because of course, a tragic economy, a horrid response to a global pandemic, record highs with the national debt, total chaos and divide in the streets of the country, 40 million people unemployed and an overt spread of racism in our communities mean absolutely nothing. Some are going to vote based upon how they treated by others in a Talk Vikes thread.

Makes sense to me. [:o] Nothing says grown-up adult quite like that.

Brad since you have been a big part of the debate around here I have temporarily taken you off ignore. You have an extreme talent for twisting things. Tragic economy. The economy was senssational before the COVID hit. Unemployment was sensational before the COVID hit. Chaos and divide in the streets are the liberals. I see no overt spread of racism. I see less racism and experience less racism than ever before. Liberals IMO are the ones spreading divisiveness and hatred. They are quick to attack me if I ever dare question them. You went so far as to give credit to George Floyd rioting for finally getting the idiotic name of the Washington NFL team removed.
If you're going to argue these things do it in good faith and I will keep you off iggy and resume hopefully having meaningful dialog with you.

Honestly, I could care less if you have me on ignore or not. I don't go to sleep at night thinking about how I can curry favor with kgdabom.

One thing is for certain, we definitely view the country through a completely different set of lenses. That's okay. It takes all kinds to make the world go around.

It seems you have been making many posts directed at me which I haven't been reading. So if you don't want those to go unheeded just argue in good faith. That's a very smal request of mine.

Like I said, you aren't that important. If you wish to ignore me, have at it. I won't miss an ounce of sleep.

You're totally missing the point. It isn't about me. It's about you arguing in good faith. Don't use tricks.

Look, I'm getting old, man. I've been around these threads since they started. Over the years I have changed and evolved quite a bit. I've said some things I'm not proud of. I admit my faults and most often try to stay away from personal attacks, albeit sometimes my emotions get the best of me.

In reading the last 10 pages or so and seeing you post over the past decade, you don't strike me as someone interested in having a symbiotic relationship. Sorry, that's just what I see.

Having said that, I'm always willing to give someone a chance. I'm not going to invest myself in it. I'm not going to go to bed at night thinking about. I still could care less if you ignore me or not. But if you want to have a rational discussion I will participate. The problem is, what you deem rational and what I deem rational are not often likely to meet in the middle.

My experience with conservatives is they are respectful.


Wow! I want to have a peek at the fantasyland you visit. Watch the crowds at Trump's rallies for the perfect visual of thousands of people who shake their fists at anyone who isn't just like them. And they win the prize for name-calling and vulgarity. If that's being respectful we truly have entered the Twilight Zone.

I have never experienced a Trump Rally. I have experienced Mark Anderson, Mr. Ed, Unome, and many others on this message board. They are almost always respectful. I have experienced Bill Johanssen, Bohumm, David LeVine, just today this Eagle person. They are extremely disrespectful. Until now you have mostly been respectful, but your comment to me today was anything but respectful and no it wasn't the facts. I'm very capable of understanding. Extremely. I just don't trust almost anything I hear when it comes to politics. So I don't come to the conclusion that Trump is a racist and I also don't come to the conclusion that Biden is a racist despite recent allegations about him being a KKK sympathizer and supporter. Despite his alleged comments about Indians and 7-11. I don't have the context.

BStinger is a liberal who's respectful most of the time. Possibly carrying the respectful torch for every liberal on this message board.

There's an old saying I recommend you reading up on. "You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar."

If you are indeed interested in getting people to listen to your agenda, you may want to take a different approach. Otherwise, you are just burning time away from your life on the Talk Vikes threads.

Honestly have never heard that before.

Our country needs to adopt that slogan. But, Centrist people don't get ratings or rile people up enough.

It's a strange country we live in right now. The only thing I want in my next president is an adult. That would be a good start. We can worry about the particulars once it happens.

It's a high standard these days.

Adults answer the tough questions, not softball rehearsed questions. They don't hide in the basement. Covid is not a good excuse. Plenty of politicians(R & D) out and about and probably have 100X the safeguards that the average American has.

You and I would disagree on that point. The adult thing to do right now is treat the virus with the respect it deserves. They've done it in other countries and had success. It's a once in a 100-year event. We seem to be on our way to making it a once in 244-year event.

Perhaps you should ask the Herman Cain family how they feel about politicians making public appearances during a pandemic.




Bill Johanesen -> RE: Covid 19 and those infected (8/14/2020 12:23:23 PM)

Chaos and divide in the streets are the liberals.

So the 17 year old starting a fire or busting a window is a "liberal".

Or perhaps someone here thinks protests are "chaos".

Either way.... WOW!
